Daylight Robbery (2008)
Alex masterminds an ambitious plan to steal millions of untraceable cash that is stacked in the underground vaults of the London Exchange Bank, waiting for its last journey, incineration. Lucky, Matty, Terry, Chubby, Norman and Jay make up his unlikely gang of robbers. They initially set-up an airline check-in clerk as their alibi, by checking in to join the thousands of England supporters who are part of a mass exodus to the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. Then, instead of passing through to the departure lounge, the gang head out to the car park, pile into a van and head for Central London, where they ram the doors of the London Exchange Bank, blocking any exit for those caught up inside.
Their plan involves a tunnel they have dug up under the bank to funnel out the cash and themselves, all within a couple of hours, in order to catch their flight out to Germany. For this purpose, they have also set up an accomplice among the hostages, who will later patch up their exit point from the bank and himself escape among the freed hostages once the police move in. However, as soon as they break-in, they have to contend with Chubby’s leg wound that he has incurred after being accidentally thrown through the back window of their van while Norman was reversing the van through the banks front doors.
